The Peachtree Center Transit Station, also known as the Gas Light Tower, is a prominent landmark at 235 Peachtree Street NE in downtown Atlanta. Located at the intersection of Peachtree St NE and John Portman Blvd NE, it sits across from the Atlanta Convention Center and just half a mile from the World of Coca-Cola.
Following updates to Atlanta’s zoning regulations, this Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) project became one of the first large-scale digital displays in the city’s Arts and Entertainment District, setting a new standard for dynamic advertising and public engagement in the area.
